Description

City Classics are delighted to offer this rare UK, low-mileage manual example.  

The car that changed Volvo forever! Enter the 850R the final transformation of Volvo from a car maker known for its safety first and foremost, to one that could design and build performance cars capable of holding their own against more established European brands. 

This certainly is the definition of a wolf under sheep's clothing, it is certainly much more than just a boring 90s estate. Under the bonnet is a 5-cylinder engine producing a whopping 250bhp, with a 0-60 in 6. 0 seconds. The Volvo 850R was introduced in the Spring of 1996 replacing the hugely popular T5R. For a limited time in 1996 only, Volvo offered a new heavy-duty manual transmission specifically, for the 850R Called the M59 which featured a viscous LSD. The M59 equipped cars fitted with 2. 3 litre, 5 cylinder engine featuring a larger TD04HL- 16T Turbo, re-designed manifold and intercooler, unique ecu, uprated fuel pressure and heavy duty clutch

 FSH (12 stamps), Impressive History file,  2 former owners, 2 Fob Keys, 1 normal Key,  Service Book, Manuals and Alcantara service wallet.

If you are looking for one of the lowest mileage/ mint condition 850R manual, this is the one, ready to drive away as an everyday car or to be cosseted by a collector for another decade. 

Recent work includes New Tyres, New Brake Disc / Pads, Timing Belt, Alternator & Starter Motor.
